Evening everybody. Wanted to stop in say hello and apologize for my extended absence

I am on the road, it is day 19 of a 25 day gig.

I rarely have time to read all the post I'd like to - and I've hardly posted at all.

On the other hand,I am piling up comp hours and ideas so when I get home I will be back on DU.

That may or may not be a good thing depending...

Peace

I enjoy the job but last year there were big budget issues and we had to cancel some training events.

Well, there are still the same amount of people who need trained so we are doubling some events and pushing more units through the same number of events.

I will say that 12-13 days I a row without a day off is a whole different animal than 25 days In a row.

They never scheduled me for this kind of crap when I was payed an hourly wage - Seems an attractive option now that I'm salaried
